This is just another shakedown Davis is singlehandedly destroying California.

Shakedown, yes. The company CEO's should have replied, "We're still asking for deregulation. What you and the Legislature gave us was a joke!"
The CEO's words carry a veiled threat. When they ask how they can stay competitive when they can't lock in long term rates, basically they're saying, "We're not going to stick around and let you bankrupt our company." Davis is too dense to read between the lines.

Ha! I guess the next executive order Davis will sign will ban any company from leaving CA and taking its assets like China did in Hong Kong.
